    New Boxing Series Might Air On TNT Or TBS

    Per Dan Rafael's twitter:

    Heard something interesting today, that the new monthly HBO2 series slated for 2012 may wind up airing on a Turner net (TNT, TBS?) instead.

    Anybody hear any more details about this? BIG news if true. Just hope they have quality fights and a good budget.

      nice!!! this is big for boxing as long as the production quality is good. tnt is real finnicky about their tv spots so it has to be on point if it doesnt wanna get canceled.

                "The word is that Greenburg was proposed a new series that will air on HBO2 as a monthly series, focusing in on young, up-and-coming talent. The license fee for this program will be approximately $150,000 per show. It seems like a pretty good idea on the surface; more boxing (whether it’s on an upstart network or an established one) is never a bad thing. It provides more opportunities for fighters to work and showcase their abilities."

                Looks like just prospects, but I like watching prospects.

                  Thanks for the info, sounds like a good idea. It would be nice to watch boxing on tnt or tbs.

                    Great now we can watch some pseudo 24/7 type show that they'll use to tell us how great the next Kirkland is. Another propaganda tool.
